can somebody help me what is mean yoursite...is it mean the domainname..?

In your cmps_index.php file:

Open your cmps_index.php file in this folder and find:
$forumpath = '';;

Add the full path to your forum between the '' marks, so that it looks like this:
$forumpath = '/home/yoursite/public_html/forums';

-------------------------------
and what is...
Note: Be sure to upload the /forum/images and /forum/cpstyles folders and their contents in Binary mode and the other files in ASCII mode.

Now you will need to chmod the /forum/modules folder to 777:

Thank you Guys

if your forum is located at htt://username.x10hosting.com, your forumpath is: "/home/username/public_html/"
if your forum is http://username.x10hosting.com/directories then your forum path is "/home/username/public_html/directories" etc...

there's 2 possible ways of uploading stuff using ftp. you just have to upload everything in /forum/images and /forum/cpstyles using binary and the rest in ASCII. usually your ftp program will allow you to choose (eg. filezilla: transfer - transfer type)
if your ftp program does not have this feature, try to upload it anyway, and if it won't work, download a good ftp program (I'ld recommend filezilla)

and last: chmod: this is a 3-digit number that tells the server who is allowed to do what (owner, group, world). it's based on powers of 2: 1, 2 and 4. chmodding files to 777 means you allow 'everyone' to read, write and execute.
how do you do it: again, using a good ftp client, you can usually do it by right-clicking the file (on the server) and selecting properties / (file) attributes or something like that.
again, if your ftp client does not have this feature, i'ld recommend downloading filezilla (right-click files, select file attributes and enter 777 in the numeric value field).

I hope this was helpful,
Marshian

On some other free hosting services (which are noob), it's sometimes very hard to find out, but x10 owns them all again ^^
If you log in to your cp, on the left side, there's "Home Directory".
If you then go to your file manager, you're in this home directory, and every time you change the active directory to finally get to your forum index, you have to add that to your home domain to get your forum's domain.

For example: if your forum is located at /public_html/forum, and your home directory is "/home/marshian":
You go to your file manager, at the home directory. (You're now at "/home/marshian".)
You open the directory "public_html". (Location: "/home/marshian/public_html")
You open the directory "forum".
(Location: "/home/marshian/public_html/forum")
And so on...
